The love and care that Melanie and her husband showered Dilie with helped the deer get better and recover 50% of her vision.

Dille is not a wild deer and therefore could not be returned to the wild even though she’s already recovered her strength, so Melanie and her husband gladly took her in.

Dillie is potty-trained, knows how to turn the lights and water faucet on, and loves eating lollipops and ice cream. She even has her own bedroom in their house in Canal Fulton, Ohio.
